Veggie Fritters

I have been trying to find new ways to get vegetables into Miss D, and ways to make them more interesting. Today we tried some fritters, these are a great way of using up whatever you have around the house, they are ridiculously way to make, and the kids can help too.

Ingredients

1 medium carrot

1 red pepper

1/2 onion

1 cup sweetcorn

3 eggs

Method

Grate or finely chop all of the vegetables into a bowl

Break all the eggs into another bowl and briefly whisk (if you are brave enough, why not let the children do this?!)

Pour the egg mixture into the vegetables and mix until everything is coated

Heat a little olive oil in a frying pan

Put a tablespoonful into the pan and press a little, just enough to make everything stick together

Cook for a minute or so, then turn over and cook for a further minute, or until nicely browned
